justtocomment (03/05/2013) [-] It's just a sculpture... Of poor quality... Of a guy... Attempting to felate himself. You can try to assign it depth and meaning, but that doesn't give it any. I can sit here and say that the missing keys from my laptop are symbolic of the decay of society as a whole in the light of constantly advancing technologies, but it isn't. It's just a shitty laptop. #209 -

justtocomment (03/05/2013) [-] And I'm done here. You can stroke the cumulative ego of every hipster artsy douche out there all you want, but there is a line. Art can be taught and understood, so yes, there is a definable standard. Only a self-indulged ass would honestly consider that sculpture capable of being art. But hey, belittle my argument all you want with your quirky little "yuh-uh, nuh-uh." It doesn't change the fact that this isn't art, and has no right to ever be considered such. The creator of that disgrace is just lucky he lives in a day and age where anyone who gets their hands on a fucking play-doh set and mushes together a dick can be consider an artist.  #200 -
Zarke (03/05/2013) [-] Dude, it's shitty art. Still art, but absolute shit. There isn't a line, there's only quality. Art isn't some label that can be bandied about like it's a good thing, like it makes a sculpture of a dude blowing himself somehow better than an untouched chunk of wood (which some hipster would probably try to call art, and I'd call it shitty and effortless). It just changes the standards by which something's judged by. Art as a concept isn't any more sacred than the content. And my "yuh-huh"/"nuh-uh" does make sense, and it should belittle your "argument". You simply state over and over again that this isn't art. I at least tried once or twice to give reasons why someone could see it as such. | ||

Zarke (03/05/2013) [-] Now we're just going "yuh-huh"/"nuh-uh". Then again, what's to be expected of a discussion about something as intangible as the interpretation of art? Like I said, we're not the artist. However, there are elements at play that people can read into. The penis in and of itself has connotations in our society. The art of masturbation also means certain things to certain people. Even the quality of the carving (the rough-hewn wood) can say something about what they were trying to say. Like I said, symbols are simple, but they can say a lot to different people. #193 -

justtocomment (03/05/2013) [-] I'm not saying it's too simple, because minimalism is a very respectable art form. I'm saying that a shitty sculpture a dude trying to play his own skin-flute isn't artistic -- it's just a poorly sculpted image of a dude trying to slobber on his dong. It was either made by a hipster douchenozzle who pushed his rimless glasses up whenever anyone commented on how shitty his "art" was, or it was made by a guy who sat down and said "what is the worst thing I could make and still get away with?" #184 -

justtocomment (03/05/2013) [-] See? Douchenozzle. I'm not saying art can't be deeper -- it's supposed to be. What I'm saying is that there's a limit. And a crude sculpture of a dude trying to gobble his knob isn't deep, isn't insightful, and only a douchenozzle would earnestly believe otherwise. #172 -
Zarke (03/05/2013) [-] You're limiting the scope of perception. If anything, the more simplistic it is, the more it CAN represent. However, in doing so, it does a progressively worse and worse job of communicating a desired idea. Symbols exist for a reason, and symbols are inherently simple. Outright saying that something is too simple to represent something (anything) is just as douchenozzle-y as saying that anything can represent something. It also comes off as snobbish. #176 -

mutzaki (03/05/2013) [-] Art has many different definitions, depending who you're asking, but no definition is official. If someone says that a crude sculpture of a guy trying to blow himself isn't art, you have to respect that, since your definition isn't better than theirs. Like, for one, if I saw a normal ladder that's simply used to get to an elevated position, I wouldn't call it an art piece. If the ladder was particularily aesthetically pleasing, for the sake of being it, I would consider it art. #192 -
Zarke (03/05/2013) [-] I say the inherently undefinable nature of art gives room for anything to be art. If someone sees something as art, that has little say over someone who doesn't, and vice versa. Like I said, it's all up to interpretation. Someone can call their creation art, and I'll believe them. I'll still say it's a shitty work of art, but it's art none the less. It just boils down to "yuh-huh"/"nuh-uh" arguments that really don't go anywhere. | ||

justtocomment (03/05/2013) [-] No. It's a dude trying to suck himself off. There is not representation there. It's a crude sculpture of a dude trying to suck his own dick. Anyone who says otherwise is a hipster of the art community who is determined to make themselves seem deeper than they could ever hope to be by pulling nonsense out of their ass, or someone playing devil's advocate by saying something like "Art is up to interpretation by everyone". There's a fucking limit to how much can be metaphorical. So no, there's nothing here but someone who got away with putting a shitty sculpture in a gallery. #168 -
Zarke (03/05/2013) [-] And that's your interpretation, that the art is entirely literal. However, you're not the artist. For all we know, they're some lonely neckbeard who wants to publicly communicate his sexual frustration with the world in the form of a sculpture of a dude blowing himself. But we'll never know that, as it can only be interpreted. Doesn't make your denial of any deeper meaning less valid, but you have to accept that other people may not agree with you. #169 -

Zarke (02/12/2013) [-] I'll disagree with that amendment and point that back to the Declaration of Independence:
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."
As far as I can see, something denying women a political voice (part of Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness) shouldn't be in there anyways, and I'm glad that society has progressed past that point.

Zarke (02/12/2013) [-] Any gun can go into the wrong hands. Not just "so-called" ARs (which in reality is a scare-term used to describe semi-automatic rifles with scary-looking furniture). Remember that Virginia Tech massacre? Committed with handguns (using 17 10-round magazines at that). Columbine? Shotguns/handguns.
There are millions of these "assault rifles" in the U.S. The vast, vast, VAST majority of which are not used in crime and likely never will be.

Zarke (02/12/2013) [-] Well, that's pretty well impossible and would likely do no good. You'd have to extract everybody from the country, overturn all the soil, search every nook and cranny, and force everybody to walk back in one at a time through metal detectors.
Secondly, not just rednecks. When there's almost a gun for every person in the U.S., you can't generalize such a large number of people as "gun-toting rednecks". People from all walks of life collect, shoot, protect themselves with, hunt with, and compete with firearms. I mean, what about recreational shooters? We aren't harming anybody, and you're arbitrarily robbing us of our hobby because you don't like guns. That goes right against our rights to Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.
Secondly, not just rednecks. When there's almost a gun for every person in the U.S., you can't generalize such a large number of people as "gun-toting rednecks". People from all walks of life collect, shoot, protect themselves with, hunt with, and compete with firearms. I mean, what about recreational shooters? We aren't harming anybody, and you're arbitrarily robbing us of our hobby because you don't like guns. That goes right against our rights to Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.
